Outlet Supervisor (Jefe/a Sector)
Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
The Outlet Supervisor oversees daily operations in a hotel restaurant or food-and-beverage outlet, ensuring excellent guest service, smooth team coordination, and compliance with quality, hygiene, and safety standards. Typical requirements include previous supervisory experience in hospitality, strong knowledge of restaurant service, good communication skills, customer focus, and the ability to organize shifts and resolve guest concerns. Fluency in Spanish and English is generally expected in the Canary Islands; additional languages are an advantage. The successful candidate should be flexible with shifts, including evenings, weekends, and holidays, and be comfortable working in a fast-paced luxury resort environment. Responsibilities may include staff briefings, stock and cash control, service quality checks, training colleagues, and supporting the outlet manager.
Can I work in the Canary Islands?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: Local-first test (hotel jobs are not on the shortage list), or a seasonal permit that comes with employer housing.
Official source: Spanish Ministry of Inclusion: residence and work permit for employees. Checked November 2026.
